Record your AWS account ID because you'll need it for the next task.

Create an IAM User

Services in AWS, such as Amazon Comprehend, require that you provide credentials when
you
access them. This allows the service to determine whether you have permissions to
access the service's resources.

We strongly recommend that you access AWS using AWS Identity and Access Management
(IAM), not the
credentials for your AWS account. To use IAM to access AWS, create an IAM user,
add the user to an IAM group with administrative permissions, and then grant
administrative permissions to the IAM user. You can then access AWS using a
special URL and the IAM user's credentials.

The Getting Started exercises in this guide assume that you have a user with
administrator privileges, adminuser.
